AUGUST KAZMEIER, OF ULM, GERMANY.

PERAIVIBULATOR.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented May 21, 1907.

Application filed July 6, 1906. Serial No 325,025.

To in whom it may concern.-

Be it known that 1, AUGUST KAZMEIER, a subject of the Emperor ofGermany, residing at Ulm, Wurtemberg, in the Empire of Germany, haveinvented a new and useful Improvement in Perarnbulators, of which thefole lowing is a specification.

The object of my invention is to render the body of perambulators orlike carriages readily detachable by unskilled persons and withouthaving to remove loose parts, and so allow of its being stored inlimited spaces or separately carried upstairs while, moreover, the bodycan be secured to a sledge at wintertime. For this purpose I adopt themeans shown in the annexed drawing, in which Figure 1 is a sideelevation of my improved perambulator with the body partly detached;Fig, 2 is a separate side elevation of the means for detachably securingthe body to the undercarriage; Fig. 3 is a section on line A- B of Fig.2 looking in thedirection of the arrow as; Fig. 4 is a plan of Fig. 2.

Instead of bolting the body of the perambulator to the undercarriage orframe, I fix to its underside two longitudinal bars a which project alittle beyond the body at its rear. At the forward end of the carriagethe bars are bent down at right-angles and have a hole I). Further, aside slot 0 is out near the rear end of each bar a and a knob 11 may beprovided for manipulating the said bars. These bars are so disposed asto correspond with two longitudinal bars a permanently fixed to thesprings or similar parts of the undercarriage. The bars 0, haveprojecting pins 6 at their forward ends adapted to engage in the holes 6of the bars a and they have stud-screwsf which can be made to enter theside slots 0. The screws f are fitted with wing-nuts g by which the barsa and a, are reliably secured together.

When it is desired to detach the body of the perambulator the nuts 9 areloosened and the entire body is then shifted a little to one side so asto disengage the slots 0 from the screws f and then pushed forwardsufficiently to remove the pins 6 from the holes b after which the bodycan be carried away. For subsequently securing the body to theundercarriage, the'pins e are pushed into the holes I), the screws fengaged in the slots 0 and the nuts 9 screwed home.

I'claim:

In a perambulator or like carriage a detachable body,- two bars fixed tothe underside thereof, a perforated angular forward end and a side slotnear the rear end of said bar in combination with two correspondingcarriage-bars in engagement with the holes of said body-bars, and studscrews near the rear end of said carriage-bars to enter the side-slotsof the former bars, as set forth.
